    About this ebook

    Experience the relentless horror of a post-apocalyptic world in "Oasis," a gripping and darkly satisfying zombie novella that delves into themes of resilience, horror, and the unyielding human will to survive.


    In the wake of devastating solar flares, the remaining population has been transformed into flesh-craving zombies due to solar radiation, leaving only a handful of survivors unscathed.


    A resilient family of civilians and a battle-hardened squad of soldiers are on a desperate mission to reach the safety of New Atlantis, a fortified UN base at the South Pole. With hordes of undead relentlessly pursuing them, their harrowing journey becomes a desperate race against time. Will they manage to reach the oasis of New Atlantis alive, or will they succumb to the ravenous undead and join their ranks?


    Praise for Oasis:


    “Oasis treads classic Romero-esque ground and has a suitably downbeat ending that I really enjoyed. I have to admit I do enjoy my zombie stories to be grimmer than grim and I’m glad to say this novella delivers on that score.” – The Eloquent Page.


    “OASIS is sharp, brutal, spiced with humour, and a great addition to the ever-growing sub-genre of Zombie Apocalypse tales. It stands on its own and yet again showcases Joan’s great talents with words and storytelling. If you’re looking for a quick read that’ll give you thrills, terror and zombies…” – Dave de Burgh
